GEORGE PIERROT
venge, though he himself was
shot in the war with Israel, and
he spoke rather bitterly of de-
fective ammunition his troops
used—ammunition,' he said, was
baught by King Farouk at large
profit to himself—of hand gren-,
ades containing sand instead of
powder, shells that wouldn't ex-
plode, Medical hupplies that
didn't arrive, etc."
Mr. Pierrot reports that Na-
guib spoke of two matters that
concerned him about Israel, one
involving the Jewish population
of the world which Naguib listed
to him as being 18,000,000, in-
stead of the actual 11,000,000.
Mr. Perriot described Naguib's
two concerns as follows:
"1. There are 18,000,000 Jews
in the world (The figure is his—
I haven't checked it). He cannot
believe the present boundaries
of Israel are all the. Jews want;
he would like to be assured by
responsible narties—the United
States and Britain—what are
ISrael's ultimate territorial aims.
"2. There are tens of thou
sands of grab refugees from Is-
rael, now quartered in unsani-
tary camps, and suffering from
malnutrition, disease, etc. He
believeS these should' either be
allowed to return to their
homes, or else be cOmpensated."
Naguib told Pierrot that he
has no enmity toward the Jews
or Israel, and that, al' present
disagreements could be settled
without war. He pointed out
that "Jewish people can and do
hold good positions in Egypt and
'many own thriving businesses.'!
The general declared that abil-
ity is what counts in getting
g o o d- jobs, not nationality: or
race —. "Jewish people are not
mistreated in Egypt, and as long
as I am in authority, they will
not be."
Part of the three hours Mr.
Pierrot spent with Naguib was
occupied with picture-taking,

Egyptian Democratic
Paper Asks End of
Antagonism to Israel
LONDON, (WJA) — "Israel is
a fact, whether we like it or
not. Therefore, we should end
our policy of antagonizing her".
This, according to the Voice of
Zion, is 'the view of the organ
of the new: Egyptian Democratic
Party, headed by Fathi al-Ram-
triali, its chairman.
In the article quoted, al-
Rammali attacks the former
Mufti of Jerusalem and the
former Secretaty General of the
Arab League, who, he -charges,
have "always fought against the
improvement of relations with
Israel".
Gen. Nagib No Aggression
In a talk with the correspond-
ent of the Tiirkish daily "Cum-
huriyet", Geri. N a g u.i b Stressed
that Egypt had ' no aggressive
aim against Israel". He added
however, that: he regarded the
creation of an Islamic bloc as
essential to the defense of the
Moslem world.
. . . perhaps some exceptions?
Cairo radio quoted the Egyp-
tian daily "Al-Akhbar" which
claimed that Egypt had won a
great victory at the United Na-
tions as she had .won the post
of Vice-President of the Gen-
eral Assembly. The article con-
tinues : "The- extent of the influ-
ence enjoyed by Jewish ele-
ments in many member-States
of the UN is no secret. Egypt's
victory indicates that UN circles
believe Egypt to be a country
worthy of representing the
Middle East Region" . • .

On Friday morning Mimmy helps Mother clean the
eandlesticks.-
'
Mimmy polishes them with a cloth. She rubs and rubs
and then rubs some More. The candlestick is shiny and
bright.
Little Dan reaches out and tries to put the candlestick
into his mouth.
"No—o!" 'says Mimmy, taking it from him: "Candle-
Sticks are for candles--Shabbos candles.
You can't eat candlesticks. Don't you know that?"
But little Dan doesn't know.

He is a little baby, and babies don't know.
Now it is Friday evening and the table •is set for
Shabbos. There is a clean white cloth. And there are lovely
flowers.
There are candlesticks with white candles. There are
two Hallahs. And there- is a bottle of wine and a silver cup.
Here is Mother.
She lights the candles and says a blessing.
"Good Shabbos, children."
"Good Shabbos," says Joel.
"Good Shabbos," says Mimmy.
Dan is too little to say "Good Shabbos."
Dan is a little baby—.
Here is Daddy, just home from his work.
"Good Shabbos, everybody!"
"Good Shabbos, good Shabbos!" And everyone in the
family gives him a great big happy hug.

2.4•THE JEWISH NEWS
Friday, November lt 1914
WASHINGTON, D. C. (JTA) —The number of Jews in /the next Congress would
have been 12, but for the death of Rep. Adolph J. Sabath of Illinois two days after he
was re-elected to his 24th consecutive term. _
An analysis of the election results established that all Jewish members of the House
of Repesentatives—with the exception of Rep. A. A. Ribicoff, of Connecticut, who was
defeated in the race for-the U. S. Senate—retained their seats while two additional
Jews were elected to the House.
The Congressmen who were elected on Tuesday are Samuel Friedal, of Maryland,
`and Lester Holtzman, of New York, both Democrats. Those who retained their seats
include Rep. Jacob K. Javits, the lone Jewish Republican, Arthur G. '-
Klein, Emanuel Celler, Abraham Multer, Sidney A. Fine, Louis B.
Heller, and Isidore Dollinger, all 'of New York; Adcilph J. Sabath and
Sidney. R. Yates, both of %Chicago; and Earl Chudoff, of Philadelphia;
Sen. Lehman is serving. an unexpired term and was not up for
re-election at this time. He retains his seat as the only Jew in the
Senate. Senator Thomas Benton, leading foe of the McCarran im-
migration bill, was badly defeated in Connecticut. Rep. Francis Wal-
ter, co-sponsor of the immigration bill,, was re-elected in Pennsylvania.
While a number of controversial extremists representing both
major parties were elected, the voters of West Virginia defeated ex-
Senator Chapman Revercomb .and . ex-Senator Rush Holt. Revercomb
sought to retur'n to' the Senate while Holt ran for the position of
Governor. Both are listed in reports of the Bnai Brith Anti-Defama-
tion League on anti-Semitism.
Countrywide tributes are being paid to the memory of Congress-
man Sabath. His courageous stand in support of all liberal legislation, t ,,ex
Rep. Sabath
his opposition to bigotry and his battle against sponsors of prejudi-
cial legislation had won for him the respect and admiration of all. Americans.

Israel Press Hopes Eisenhower Policy Will Favor State
TEL AVIV, (JTA)—Commenting on the American Presidential elections, the He-
brew press expressed the hope that President-elect Dwight D. Eisenhower would continue
the pro-Israel policy of the Democratic Administration. "
Several of the Tel -Aviv newspapers published special editions on.. the United States
elections. Interest in the elections ran high, and news of Gen. Eisenhower's victory was
broadcast to all parts of the country and local stations' picked it up and rebroadcast the
announcement at short intervals. The American Embassy information service and ZOA
House here-issued election returns bulletins every half hour until the outcome was known,
